Genetic Syndromes of the Ras/MAPK Pathway: From Bedside to Bench and Back

The overall goal of this symposium was to provide an open forum for researchers, clinicians and physician–scientists, trainees, and families to share and discuss basic science and clinical issues to set forth a solid framework for future research, translational applications directed toward therapy, and best practices for individuals with these syndromes. Formalization of basic science and clinical research through this symposium would also provide insight into the cause and progression of cancer as well as the understanding of how this critical signal transduction pathway is involved in the regulation of normal human development.
